Not at Engine Shed?
The city’s Engine Shed, situated near Bristol Temple Meads station, epitomizes Bristol’s tech spirit. This dynamic hub for tech and innovation hosts a range of startups and tech initiatives, supporting the growth and development of the industry. It is a testament to the city’s commitment to tech innovation and entrepreneurship. We work alongside lots of companies who frequent the Engine Shed but we are not based here.

The city is known worldwide as the home of Banksy, whose provocative street art can be found dotted around the city.

The creative and tech scenes in Bristol intermingle, leading to exciting collaborations and innovations, from VR experiences to interactive art installations.
